Review of Blue Moon Beach Grill

Was assured by my server that the shrimp and grits were GF. Tested the dish and gluten was found. Also important note that they do not use a dedicated fryer. I spoke to Scott, one of the owners. He explained that they cook their fries twice (blanching them the first time). They switch fryers when doing this so this means that some fries will be cooked in oil that has flour in it and then fried in the “dedicated” fryer. Might be okay (?) if you are gluten intolerant but big cross-contamination risk for Celiac. He has instructed his staff to let celiac individuals know that they should not order items cooked In the fryer.
